Merci beaucoup, maitre!

We are planning to see a lot of city, coast and back country over the next week. Cheers Marc ...

You will have a feast. Good time of the year to see this superb part of France. Try to go to the Alpes de Haute Provence. Grasse, Forcalquier, Banon... It is magic.

Looks like a late summer trip. Squeeze every minute out of this wonderful city.

By: Bill : September 30th, 2024-15:26

We will, thank you. Marseille is as

exciting and gritty and more beautiful than I had imagined for many years.

Get the Bouillabaisse at Le Miramar

Vieux-Port

+++1! Or " La Dorade " at the Vieux Port. ;)

👍

By: brauner : September 30th, 2024-16:01

You tested it?

By: amanico : September 30th, 2024-20:43

I took a quick look and would try when there. I know the Miramar.

Two lawyers can't be wrong.

This lawyer here highly

recommends Peron. Fantastic place for dinner.

This one I don't know.

By: amanico : October 1st, 2024-23:16

Indeed! ;)

I've been to France more than a dozen times and I've never been to Marseille!

By: patrick_y : September 30th, 2024-16:15

Enjoy! And be safe!

You should!

By: amanico : September 30th, 2024-16:20

Enjoy & Be Safe - two recommendations almost diametrically opposed to each other!

Last time I was in Marseille I had a fantastic fish dinner with a pal, then we wandered around the harborside and he drifted off and walked off down a side street and disappeared. At the time we didn’t know he was diabetic — he pretty much flamed out and ...

"Enjoy and be safe" is a bit of a paradoxical statement in Marseille!

By: patrick_y : September 30th, 2024-19:51

That's not that terrible!

By: amanico : September 30th, 2024-20:43

I'd feel a lot safer if you were around!

By: patrick_y : September 30th, 2024-20:49

I had to defend a local football star's brother. A giant. :))) I was welcomed in Marseille like a member of the famiglia. :)

By: amanico : September 30th, 2024-20:59

Perfect! We're protected!

By: patrick_y : September 30th, 2024-21:12

Clearly. I went there several times, zero problems.

By: amanico : September 30th, 2024-21:12

Had dinner at Ciel, which

By: Gwai : October 1st, 2024-06:28

we came upon by chance. At first glance, hehe, it's about the views but the food is great as well. Try the marinated sardines! ...

Superb! Great place you found!

By: amanico : October 1st, 2024-06:31

Actually, my wife found it. Stupid me

By: Gwai : October 1st, 2024-06:34

thought I saw a gallery entrance. Ciel is on the 7th floor rooftop.

That about equals my own count. First-

By: Gwai : October 1st, 2024-06:45

time visit here! (And no perceived, let alone real, safety issues so far.)

Great photos!

By: gary_g : September 30th, 2024-16:41

Enjoy!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : September 30th, 2024-16:43

Sweet!

By: InHavenPro : September 30th, 2024-18:43

Looks like a lovely place to be with a beautiful watch on.

By: s_haverford : October 1st, 2024-09:51

I can imagine with the OF, the watch is incredibly comfortable

With that watch I'll never part,

By: Gwai : October 1st, 2024-12:01

I assure you.
